Went for my weekly trip today. Was running late made it to the shop at 11:45 he closes at noon we walk in and it sound like a water hose is running wide open in the shop. His roof I guess had a problem and started dumping gallos on water into the back of the shop onto his filing cabniets and safes.
I felt so bad he has alot of water soaked inventory now. Stuff in the safes were dry of course but all his rolled stuff on top and other boxes of stuff he had not got put away got soaked.
HE asked if we could come back next week after he had it all cleaned up. Talk about a bad day.

Horrible story for sure. But it could have been a lot worse. What if he had a grocery store?
